Does that mean the travel document becomes invalid? Also, is that a law that states that you can only apply for a new passport 4-5 days after the oath? If I were to explain to the oath officer that I need an urgent processing of my passport, that would be denied?
you can apply for urgent passport as soon as you receive your certificate but the thing is receiving certificate can take anywhere between 2 - 8 weeks.

Hello. I have an update after Sept 22. Though they have not marked any steps complete they have sent me a test invite.. anyone in the same boat?

Also one more thing. I am out of Canada. Can I take the test online from my home country using vpn Or should I inform them.

My apprehension is they might just sit on it again for month's.. has anyone done this? Do they extend the date..??


This is what's on their site.
If you get your invitation and plan to take the test while you’re outside Canada, send an email to the address in the Eligibility section of your invitation.

In your email

  • put “Outside Canada – Citizenship Test” in the subject line
  • in the body of your message, include
    • your full name
    • your application number
    • the start and end date for your test
We’ll contact you with your next steps after we receive your email.

I was in the same boat as you. I sent them a note expecting for a new time frame. but received an email a day before my testing time frame was supposed to end saying that I can go ahead and take the test "during" the original test invitation timing.
I had to rush to take the test.

Based on this experience, I will suggest you sent them a note as per the email note. and take the test.
